Signal in the Noise: The Ringberg Workshop on JWST Exoplanet Observations

Beginn: 16.11.2025
Ende: 21.11.2025
Vortragende(r): Taylor Bell, Aarynn Carter, Daniel Huber, and Alexander (Sasha) Shapiro
Ort: Schloss Ringberg
Gastgeber: Eva-Maria Ahrer (MPIA), Lili Alderson (Cornell University), Adina Feinstein (Michigan State University), Benjamin Rackham (MIT) and Michael Radica (University of Chicago)

Signal in the Noise is a workshop focused on overcoming the instrumental and astrophysical challenges we face in characterising transiting exoplanet atmospheres. JWST has transformed our study of exoplanets with its unprecedented precision in previously inaccessible wavelength ranges. Yet, as we extend our efforts to observe smaller and more complex signals, we increasingly encounter noise sources—both instrumental and astrophysical—that challenge our ability to discern atmospheric signatures. This workshop aims to address these challenges by bringing together ~50 experts on JWST data analysis and stellar activity to share insights and approaches and to collaborate on the analysis of real JWST datasets over a weeklong workshop.

The 10th annual Network of Young Researchers in Instrumentation for Astronomy (NYRIA) workshop will be held at the Haus der Astronomie (HdA) and the Max-Planck-Institut für Astronomie (MPIA). NYRIA brings together young researchers in the field of ground based, visible and infrared instrumentation. The workshop will see members of the community share their research, take part in tours and an instrumentation themed hackathon among other things. This 10th edition is particularly special as MPIA was the location of the first workshop in 2015. [mehr]

Ringberg Meeting: Puzzles of Star Formation II

Ringberg Meeting

Beginn: 04.05.2025
Ende: 07.05.2025
Ort: Schloss Ringberg

Welcome to this workshop to explore the boundaries and puzzles in the field of star formation. This is the second incarnation of the Puzzles of Star Formation meeting (PoSFII), where the first edition took place at Ringberg castle in 2021. We do not anticipate the classical meeting where everybody presents and summarizes the most recent results, but rather we would like to dig deeper and decipher the real problems in the field that still need to be solved.
